Great insight into local politics,

This review is from: Anytown USA (The Film Movement Series) (DVD)
This movie offers a documentary style look into local politics. It does a great job of showing why people run, what they will do to win, and what impact it has upon them when they win or loose. It is educational, but never boring. It just moves along like a television show, but actually imparts knowledge about how the system works, and why it works the way it does. It also shows the human side of what moves these individuals and their supporters. A very, very good movie indeed.

Documentary about the political process,
By Reader "cvrcak1" (Boca Raton, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anytown USA (The Film Movement Series) (DVD)
This is very interesting documentary about the political process in the local elections for the town mayor. Small town in New Jersey has local elections. It is apparent that local citizens are less than thrilled with their current (Republican) mayor. The race is interesting because the current mayor is legally blind and so is his independent party challenger - a young man who has been battling brain tumor, Democratic nominee is well known in the city but he seems to be battling illness too which he prefers to keep a secret.
Political strategy, process of getting citizens involved and engaged, the ambition, the drive, and support of the family are all aspects of the story. The conclusion and aftermath are amazing. By the end of the documentary, viewer will be so entangled with everyone's destiny that it will be fireworks explosion of the emotions about the events that follow the actual end of the election process. This film gives a complete story about democratic process of this country, its citizens that are important part of its process and private citizens that are becoming a willing participants in trading their very private lives for a very public ones. Memo to "Film movement" company - this is one of your best productions ever!

Anytown USA - fabulous!,
This review is from: Anytown USA (The Film Movement Series) (DVD)
The movie is a must see. Documentary film maker Kristian Fraga is one to watch out for, and you can see his genius at work here. 5 stars all the way.
